Chapter 714: It's Time to Score!

Back at White Hart Lane once again, Cesc Fabregas was filled with embarrassment.

He is very familiar with the stadium because he has played here for five years, and it is in those five years that he has become one of the world's top midfielders and the focus of countless fans.

Once, he once thought about retiring here, because he liked the fans here, they were very simple and fanatical, but returning to his hometown, wearing the Barcelona jersey, and playing for Barcelona was also his dream since he was a child, and it was what his whole family expected of him.

It's hard to get the best of both worlds, and between Tottenham Hotspur, who raised him, and Barcelona, the love of his life, he could never choose one or the other, and in the end he chose Barcelona because he knew that he was a Spaniard and a Catalan, and Barcelona was his only home.

Another thing that many people don't know is that when Cesc Fabregas decided to leave Barcelona for Chelsea, Guardiola's opinion played a big role in impetus, and what Guardiola told him at the time was that he would return to Barcelona after playing outside, so it was difficult for Fabregas to refuse an invitation from Guardiola.

But, even so, his gratitude to Tottenham Hotspur and respect for Ye Qiu in his heart have not been reduced by a few points because of this, but it was not until he joined Barcelona that he really realized that not all teams are as simple and professional as Tottenham Hotspur.

In Tottenham Hotspur, players only need to concentrate on playing well, your salary, business sponsorship, off-field life chores, etc., there are professional people to help you deal with it, and even if you are unhappy, there will be a psychological counselor to chat with you, and that Luo Fat Man who likes to be funny and funny.

But at Barcelona, especially with the arrival of Russell, the team has become complicated, full of contradictions and problems, such as Barcelona missing out on Villa, which led to the Spanish international's switch to Liverpool, which made Guardiola very unhappy.

But soon, Rosell announced an investigation into former president Laporta, believing that he had committed serious corruption during his presidency of Barcelona, which led to serious losses for the team, and this was the first time in La Liga's two banner giants, even after the ouster of Calderón, the worst president of Real Madrid that year, Florentino did not do such a thing.

Laporta found Pep Guardiola, the unlucky guy who wanted to switch to politics but found it difficult to make a difference, his life became fragmented, and once he faced a financial fraud investigation, he might even have all his assets frozen and cried to Guardiola, and the latter was also grateful to Laporta for giving him the opportunity to be the head coach, so he expressed his sympathy for Laporta in an interview, but this was exchanged for Rusell's anger and dissatisfaction.

This was followed by Cruyff returning the title of honorary president of Barcelona and directly announcing a split at the top, while Guardiola was undoubtedly on his mentor's side, which also made it difficult to carry out the contract renewal issue between him and Barcelona.

There is also a very important contradiction is that the assistant coach, that is, Barcelona's most popular head coach candidate next season, Vilanova had cancer surgery and was very successful, but everyone was scared, as well as Abidal's tumor, and the absence of the French left-back also made Barcelona's left side a weakness.

If some things are just emergencies and do not have a great impact on the team, then the split in the management has directly led to conflicts within the team, at least many people are already dissatisfied with the current situation of Barcelona, such as the team's number one center forward Van Persie has said that he wants to leave.

Perhaps, many people are right, Catalans have a very beautiful value in life, that is, to redeem their souls by hard work and devote everything to their work, which has allowed countless Catalans to create and prove their life worth.

But Catalans also have a typical character flaw, which is that they are too sentimental and too vulnerable.

When Cesc Fabregas stepped off the Barcelona bus and saw the statue of a fighting on the football above the White Hart Lane stadium, he really felt a sense of regret, he felt that playing for Barcelona was too stressful, and it was too complicated, but it was not as simple as when Tottenham Hotspur was in the past.

But, how can there be regret medicine in the world?

Moreover, Fabregas's sentimentality was only a momentary surge of emotion, and when his mood calmed down, it faded away, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.

After all, Barcelona is where he really belongs, isn't it?

After calming down, Cesc Fabregas had another kind of worry, will the Tottenham Hotspur fans take revenge on him when they see him, just like the Barcelona fans threw Figo with a pig's head? What kind of attitude will Tottenham Hotspur's teammates have when they see him? And what will he do with this player who has left the team?

Cesc Fabregas's apprehension lasted for a long time, and his nervousness was only put down when he walked into the visitors' dressing room, changed his clothes, walked out of the dressing room, walked out of the tunnel and was ready to go on the pitch for a warm-up.

Many, many Tottenham Hotspur fans were shouting the name of Cesc Fabregas, shouting the name of Robin van Persie, shouting the name of Mascherano and even some fans playing their images in the stands to show that Tottenham Hotspur had not forgotten the three players who had played for Tottenham Hotspur.

All three also raised their hands and applauded the fans in the stands to thank them for their love and support.

"Hey, Sesk!"

As soon as Fabregas walked out of the player's tunnel, what he didn't expect was that Ye Qiu was nearby, just chatting with Guardiola, and as soon as he saw Fabregas, he took the initiative to say hello with a smile.

"Hello, head!" Cesc Fabregas blurted out, unable to change his words for a moment, and then glanced apprehensively at Guardiola, who was also smiling, obviously not taking this sentence to heart.

"Come on, but don't expect to beat us!" Ye Qiu joked.

"Hi Robin!" Without waiting for Fabregas to react, Ye Qiu followed Batman Robin who came over with a smile? Van Persie high-fived, the Dutchman has a closer relationship with Ye Qiu, and he is often in contact, he belongs to the kind of player with a more extroverted personality.

"Head, I have a feeling that I can score today, and I can score a lot!" Van Persie smiled defiantly.

"Oh yes, I almost forgot, you scored twice in a row lately!" Ye Qiu also responded with a smile, but soon, the conversation changed, "But you can only be wild in Zaragoza and Getafe, do you think Volkswagen Polo can compare with Bugatti Veyron?" ”

I don't know why, Ye Qiu remembered Roland? Shepas that a red bag Volkswagen Polo.

"I'll prove it to you!" Fan Persie pointed at Ye Qiu with a smile and said.

"Javier!" Ye Qiu didn't refute either, and noticed Mascherano standing next to Van Persie, "I told Cavani to keep an eye on your head and beat, you'd better be careful!" After speaking, he laughed with a look of fear that the world would not be chaotic.

Mascherano's expression was originally a little cold, but after listening to Ye Qiu's words, he laughed, "I'm not afraid of him!" ”

After sending away a few players, Ye Qiu turned around and noticed that Guardiola was also smiling, a little embarrassed, close to his players in front of other coaches, especially in such an important game, Ye Qiu was thinking, is he a little too much?

"To be honest, I admire you, at least your relationship with these players is still so good." When Guardiola said this, it contained embarrassment and helplessness.

After hearing this, Ye Qiu shook his head, "Actually, there is nothing, I have always felt that the relationship between the player and the head coach is not only a kind of cooperation, but also a kind of coexistence, you can't just pay attention to the relationship of interests, but you can't blindly rely on feelings, the head coach should not be too involved in the players, but also should not be too detached, there needs to be a balance!" ”

After Guardiola heard this, he was very insightful and experienced, he was too deeply involved and was good friends with many players, resulting in a lot of his work in the club not being able to be carried out at all.

The most difficult thing in the world to deal with in this world is human affection!

And once you get entangled in this kind of thing, it's hard to get rid of it, so Guardiola decided not to renew his contract, leave Barcelona, and leave these emotional whirlpools, so that he can unload the pressure and travel lightly.

Sometimes Ye Qiu is thinking about another problem, the whole world is scolding Moratti, saying that he is emotional, but in fact, the people who are in it are the most bitter, just like Moratti, he knows very well what the team should do is the right choice, it is right, but he is a bad person and does not want to offend people, which has led to the current situation of Inter Milan.

It's no wonder that some say that Moratti is the best boss in the world, but the worst operator.

"No matter what, Pepe, I must win this fight!" Ye Qiu said confidently.

Pepe, that's a good friend's nickname for Pep Guardiola.

"Me too!" Guardiola also replied stiffly, but there was no vitality and passion on his face, only a kind of exhaustion, and a kind of helplessness, he no longer had the sharpness he had in his first season in charge of the team.

As Alex Ferguson once said, the first season of coaching top giants like Barcelona and Real Madrid is undoubtedly very, very difficult, but every season after that, the difficulty is constantly rising, getting harder and harder, more and more difficult, and in the end the pressure will swallow you.

Therefore, teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid will never produce Ferguson, never possible!

Because in such a team, the manager is always only a supporting role, and the team and the chairman are the protagonists.

"Viewers, welcome to the first leg of the 2011-2012 UEFA Champions League semi-finals, which we will now broadcast live from Tottenham Hotspur in London.

"The two teams we played against in this game can be described as the two most powerful and influential top teams in football today, namely Tottenham Hotspur, the supremacy of the English Premier League, and Barcelona, the traditional giants of La Liga!"

"There is no doubt that it will be a very good game because Tottenham Hotspur and Barcelona are both attacking and defensive teams, and both teams are the most attacking teams in Europe at the moment, with Tottenham Hotspur leading in Europe in terms of goals, Barcelona third and Real Madrid, another big club from La Liga, second."

"This game is about to start and the starting line-ups for both sides are out."

"Tottenham Hotspur, who is fighting at home, still discharges Ye Qiu's best 433 tactics, and the goalkeeper is the Czech goalkeeper Peter? Petr Cech, Marcelo, Vincent Kompany, Thiago at the back? Silva and Alves, who have also been the main defence of Tottenham Hotspur this season, have been in excellent form in both the Premier League and Champions League. ”

'The midfield is an iron triangle of Ramsey, Andrea Pirlo and Vidal, and we've all noticed that Tottenham Hotspur's midfield has worked really well and performed well this season, while the front three have been star-studded, with Franck Ribery, Cavani and Messi.

"Tottenham Hotspur did their best in this game, and many pre-match comments said that Tottenham Hotspur will try to break the opponent in one fell swoop in the home game, and in addition to paying attention to top superstars Messi and Ribery, I personally think that Cavani is also a player who needs to be careful with Barcelona."

"Cavani is not only a player with height, but also has the strength to fight, and his feet are not bad, and more importantly, he can not only score by himself, but also be very good at disrupting the opponent's defense, which can allow Tottenham Hotspur to play well after Messi, Ribery, Vidal and Ramsey and other players to insert back, so the tactical value is very great!"

"Barcelona is also full of personnel, the goalkeeper is Valdés, the back line is Adriano, Mascherano, Pique and Puyol, the midfield three are Iniesta, Busquets and Xavi, and the front three are Sanchez, Van Persie and Cesc Fabregas!"

"It is worth noting that in the starting line-up of Barcelona for this game, Mascherano, Van Persie and Cesc Fabregas are all players from Tottenham Hotspur, they are all very familiar with this team, and Cruyff said before the game that if Barcelona take advantage of this, it will not be difficult to win away from home."

But Ye Qiu said in refuting Cruyff that these players are familiar with the previous Tottenham Hotspur, but this season's Tottenham Hotspur is very different from before, so he is not only not worried about being recognized by the other party, on the contrary, he feels that his familiarity with these players can help Tottenham Hotspur beat the opponent.

"The pre-match war of words between the two sides was loud, and fans all over the world were watching this big match, and we all know that this match will not disappoint the fans who are waiting for it!"

With the analysis of the on-site commentators, the players of the two teams slowly walked out of the player tunnel under the leadership of the referee, and the two sides lined up in front of the White Hart Lane fans, and then began a series of pre-match conventions, and in the subsequent side guessing, Barcelona won the serve, and Cesc Fabregas and Van Persie stood in the center circle.

"Cesc Fabregas used to play in the midfield position at Tottenham Hotspur, but after coming to Barcelona, he was promoted by Pep Guardiola to be the team's main attacker, and he is still doing very well."

"The referee is checking the time with the fourth official on the sidelines, and the game is about to start!"

With the referee's whistle, this much-anticipated focus battle finally began.

At the beginning of the game, Barcelona knocked the ball back, and the players in the front court quickly inserted, Xavi made a diagonal long pass in the midfield, trying to find Sanchez, but Marcelo blocked Sanchez with his body and let the ball go out of the line.

"Tottenham Hotspur is very solid, Marcelo's defense is also very experienced, it only took ten seconds to help Tottenham Hotspur regain possession, Barcelona started a little impatiently, we all know that both teams attach great importance to possession, and the game was less than ten seconds to give possession to Tottenham Hotspur, it seems that Barcelona is still a little anxious to start."

Tottenham Hotspur soon sent a throw-in, Marcelo tossed the ball to Ribery who came back from the front, who hooked directly to Ramsey with his foot, and the Welshman pushed the ball without stopping, while Pirlo, who received the ball behind him, pushed it again and sent it to the right and gave it to Alves.

"Tottenham Hotspur made a very quick successive pass, the ball came to the right side, and soon, directly broke through Barcelona's dense defense and pressing, which is also a highlight of the game, to see if Tottenham Hotspur can use their off-the-ball running and skillful one-kick pass to tear Barcelona holes, as many people say."

But when Alves got the ball on the right, Barcelona were clearly pressed very close, Alves tried to pass to Messi, but the Argentine knocked back Vidal, who knocked back to Thiago behind him? Silva, Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas are all harassing the defence, and Thiago? Silva had to knock back to goalkeeper Petr Cech.

'Barcelona are pressing very hard and it looks like Pep Guardiola is still looking to use what he does best to defend high and press with high intensity to contain Tottenham Hotspur.

Kompany seeing Thiago? Silva was distracted and immediately distanced himself from his team-mates, and just as the two centre-backs had pulled the distance, Pirlo ran back from midfield to pick up a pass from Cech.

As soon as Pirlo took the ball, he immediately turned around, he almost didn't even have to look, and at the moment of turning, his hands were slightly open, and his right foot was picked up directly into a diagonal diagonal pass.

The ball from the front of the penalty area, after crossing a beautiful arc, fell on the right side of the 30-meter area of Barcelona, I saw that Messi did not know when he was rushing forward quickly, and Adriano was clinging to Messi in the scramble, but the Argentine still raised his left foot early and gently picked up the incoming ball.

This pick allowed the ball to pick up Adriano, the Brazilian left-back chased back too hard and rushed directly over the head, while Messi was after a pick, his hands gently borrowed from Adriano's back, facing the middle, the header met the falling ball a little, and then chased forward.

The whole process was done in one go, which directly caused a big hole in Barcelona's defense.

At this time, Cavani quickly rushed to Barcelona's penalty area, Messi stopped the ball and then directly kicked it and passed it to the right corner of the penalty area, Cavani received the ball and sprinted to the penalty area, but Mascherano entangled Cavani, and the Uruguayan saw that there was no chance, and knocked the ball behind him with his heel.

This wonderful pass happened to the feet of Messi, and the whole audience was in an uproar, and everyone thought that Cavani had opened his eyes behind him, because after Messi received the ball, there was no defender next to him, and there was only one Pique left in front of him who was assisting behind Mascherano.

"Come on, come on, let's score!" The on-site commentators are also cooperating with the situation and cheering loudly! Tottenham made a very quick successive pass, the ball came to the right, and soon, directly broke through Barcelona's dense defense and pressing, which is also a highlight of the game, to see if Tottenham Hotspur can use their off-the-ball running and skillful one-kick pass to tear Barcelona's holes as many people say. ”

But when Alves got the ball on the right, Barcelona were clearly pressed very close, Alves tried to pass to Messi, but the Argentine knocked back Vidal, who knocked back to Thiago behind him?
